  1. It won’t happen because there is no discipline in the mechanical side of the sport, the riders rule the sport, until that changes nothing changes
  2. And nobody is talking about the elephant in the room and it’s been in the room for years ,in the last 15-20 years the revs on a speedway bike have increased dramatically, tyres can’t cope, valves springs can’t cope, tracks can’t cope, nothing has been achieved racing wise or cost wise and safety wise has gone backwards, the only ones to benefit are the tuners and even they will tell you they don’t make enough, it is a misconception that speedway is faster now, it isn’t, the bikes are traveling at roughly the same speed as the upright days, the difference is the speed of the spinning wheel has increased hugely and you run a tyre spinning at that speed with around 6psi what the hell do you expect, yes mitas were a better tyre than anlas but there isn’t a tyre manufacturer in the world that could produce a tyre that wouldn’t get ripped to shreds on a current speedway bike, will speedway learn from its mistakes ? I doubt it
  3. You will see it pumping the oil through the glass when bike is running, if you are still unsure unscrew the banjo that is top of oil pipe to head, oil should come out, don’t do it for long though, do you have reason to think it’s not working ?
  4. Sadly this is much much worse than speedway, it could be as bad as starving or freezing to death
  5. Subjective view I know but Marcella reminds me of a Eurovision Song Contest presenter and is annoying as hell
  6. I wouldn’t be so sure, the FIM are already taking about it, and laguta has been posting some things lately, sayfutinov seems to have disappeared of the face of the earth
  7. If laguta gets back in so will sayfutinov, then will be only 3 wildcards and you would of thought it would be 7th, 8th, 9th
  8. Doyle’s last 2 rounds have been confidence sapping, been on the deck 4 times and 2 tape offences and bikes lacking speed
  9. Yes many times, had a big crash there in 1997 and hated it after that
  10. That statement should have the words “finish a race” at the end
  11. Zmarzlik is IMO one of the greatest riders ever to grace our sport, he is just amazing to watch
  12. Kenyan rew has been impressive so far but he has been mixing it when called up to the world stage, think he could be the next top Aussie
  13. That’s how I heard about it, it was on planet rock a few times
  14. There is certainly a few big girls who come out when the track is less than perfect
  15. Oh yes , now Deeanne Clarke , changed about 6years ago, you can check her out on fb
